## L-moments of the Weibull Distribution

### Description

This function estimates the L-moments of the Weibull distribution given the parameters (zeta, β, and delta) from `parwei`. The Weibull distribution is a reverse Generalized Extreme Value distribution. As result, the Generalized Extreme Value algorithms (`lmomgev`) are used for computation of the L-moments of the Weibull in this package (see `parwei`).

### Usage

    lmomwei(para)

### Arguments

`para` | The parameters of the distribution.

### Value

An R `list` is returned.

`L1` | Arithmetic mean.
`L2` | L-scale—analogous to standard deviation.
`LCV` | coefficient of L-variation—analogous to coefficient of variation.
`TAU3` | The third L-moment ratio or L-skew—analogous to skew.
`TAU4` | The fourth L-moment ratio or L-kurtosis—analogous to kurtosis.
`TAU5` | The fifth L-moment ratio.
`L3` | The third L-moment.
`L4` | The fourth L-moment.
`L5` | The fifth L-moment.
`source` | An attribute identifying the computational source of the L-moments: “lmomwei”.
